Energy and Biochemical Reactions

1

Remember - green words will show you definitions if you hover over them!!

What is a chemical reaction?

1

What is an exothermic reaction?

1

Tricky one: What are the substances that go INTO a reaction called? What about the substances that come out?

1

What is an endothermic reaction?

1

What is activation energy?

1

Why do all reactions need energy to get started?

1

What is a chemical equation?

Important Note from Mrs. B!

In organisms, the total of all the reactions going on is called metabolism.  Exothermic reactions are called catabolic reactions (let the "cat" out of the bag!) and endothermic reactions are called anabolic reactions.

(Didn't want to make you read a whole CK12 for that!)
